The West Point Inn was built in 1904 by the Mill Valley & Mount Tamalpais Scenic Railway, where daily steam trains met a stagecoach for a journey to the beach. It was a stop on a railway whose major stops were at Tamalpais East Peak and Muirwoods. For hikers, the inn offered food, rooms, and shelter in a place of delightful hospitality. Over the years, each time the inn faced a crisis, hikers quickly volunteered to find a way to keep it going. The inn has been owned by the Marin Municipal Water District since 1932 and run by volunteers since 1943.
